Anyone would think that their most sacred time of year, when JC rose
from
the dead, would not be named after the Goddess of fertility Oestre with
her symbols the egg and rabbit.


I don't see why not - it's about rebirth and all that.

What I don't get is why they call his execution day "Good" anything!

Cheers!

What I don't get is why us christians keep ranting that the jews killed
jesus and that it was a bad thing. After all, isn't it us christians
that are always explaining unfortunate events as god working in
mysterious ways. And how might history have been different if jesus
hadn't become a martyr through his death. He might not have gained the
power us christians gave him if he had just grown old and died a natural
death. Ultimately, if us christians are going to continue to rant that
the jews killed jesus, then the least we could do is be grateful;
without his death we have no martyr, no death for our sins, and no
resurrection. Woe be to me or to any other christian that believes god's
will was a bad thing.

Really? When did htis rant start?

I haven't been to church much lately. However, when I was still attending,
it was pretty clear from the sunday school stories that it was the Romans
who killed Jesus.

I read in sci.electronics.design that wrote (in
ps.com) about
'Christmas vs "Holidays"', on Sat, 18 Dec 2004:


Not sure what you mean he sorry. Perhaps I should explain what I
meant?

I know what you meant; I was applying 'relentless logic'. If a date of
writing is proven false, it was false from whenever it was stated, not
from when the falsity was discovered.
